Rosann Sanders

If a patient comes in with chest pains, we'll hook them up for an EKG and do other tests. Patients stay in the emergency room until all tests are finished. We want to make sure a patient is stabilized (before release).

Kai Gerkey

Breaking into a professors office to steal papers and tests is an example of a reason why a student would be expelled.

This is going to be a time that tests people's conviction, and people have thought often of how much money they can make and not enough about the question: How much can you lose? I'm reminded of a great quote by Warren Buffett when he said: 'It's only when the tide goes out that you see who is swimming without a bathing suit,'.

Christopher Davis

I think it tests the strength of individuals, ... It's an odd form of playing. I think it stretches people. They see it as being an old-fashioned form of golf that should be scrubbed out and it should all be best ball, but I don't agree. Foursomes golf, I think, gives a nice balance to how the team end of it runs.

Tony Jacklin

One of the hallmarks of our approach is the vigorous feedback between our computer models and our laboratory work. The computer simulations help us perform better experiments, and the laboratory tests help us design better simulation, and the overall combination saves time and money.

Andreas Lüttge

These results give strong evidence for the simple models proposed for the universe's early development. Inflation has passed one of its most significant tests.

Suzanne O'connell

There are no nuclear tests planned or desired.

Jordan Mcmichael

As a programmer, it's sometimes difficult to know how ordinary people with no technical experience are reacting to your software. Linux people tend to know other Linux people.

Nat Friedman

Polygraph tests are 20th-century witchcraft.

Sam Ervin

Brandon Roberts

What a lot of people don't realize is these tests are given in preparation for the 10th-grade GQE. That's the one with the highest stakes for individual students. They have to eventually pass that to graduate.

Linda Stephenson

The overwhelming majority of theories are rejected because they contain bad explanations, not because they fail experimental tests.

David Deutsch

It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.

George Steiner

We've been watching Jens closely in recent weeks and have been quite impressed with his performance. We now want to take a closer look in the fitness tests.

Derrick Edwards

We have done well against some teams that have given us problems in the past. The bigger tests are coming after spring break. We need to eliminate the lapses.

David Jensen

It is possible that some students know what drugs are and are not included in the tests, and migrate toward using those not included.

Lloyd Johnston

He's showing minimal side effects. Tests on his bone marrow indicate that the chemotherapy is working.

Courtney Campbell

We are expecting a lot and so is the team. First tests in December in Sweden and France showed us that these expectations are well reasoned. All new Focus is not only fast but incredibly reliable after such a short development.

Marcus Gronholm

I encouraged Lorry to make it fun. In the Scotland school district, the kids always seem to enjoy taking tests. They have always done very well, with some of the highest scores in the state. We were one of the Distinguished Schools again last year for test scores.

Dennis Archer

Because it's high-stakes, there's obviously a lot of concern and scrutiny. I would really put them up against any industry. It's just that their mistakes are really magnified. Their mistakes are really a very small percentage of the volume of tests.

Don Long

AOL is committed to offering our members the best high-speed experience -- not just faster dial-up but true broadband from a cable or DSL connection. We've seen in recent market tests that our members respond very strongly to the ability to more simply combine what they have from AOL with what they want from a broadband connection, and now we're going to deliver it from coast to coast.

Johnie Kirton

We'll see larger differences the older kids get. The new tests put more emphasis on probability and statistics with 11th graders. Previously most of the emphasis was on algebra and geometry. What changes is more of the emphasis.

Joe Stangler

The tests that need to be done are not onerous, too difficult or too expensive. Some companies might be confused, some just ignored us. But the majority came though, and it's only fair to them that we act when others don't act appropriately.

Glenn Brank

We will even give the tests at Evangeline Downs so they don't have to travel.

Trey Thibodeaux

Matthew Hayden

It is madness that the federal government is still spending millions on teaching middle-aged bureaucrats how to pass language tests rather than sending young, enthusiastic recruits to the public service to work in another language and culture.

Graham Fraser

We continually enhance our testing. That's why the new tests that McDonald's implemented produced the results that we believe are the most accurate today.

James Nokes

Some films could only have been cast in one way: Screen tests were given and the losers got the parts.

Gene Shalit

It used to be easy to find a an opponent if somebody fell through, but boxers aren't willing to take last-minute fights anymore. There's a lot of red tape now. It takes time to process the medical tests, and the commissioners aren't approving the match-ups as readily as they used to.

Kathy Garcia

No one tests the depth of a river with both feet.

African Proverb

If he doesn't get hurt and passes all the skin tests, there's nobody that's even close to him. He hasn't had a close match all year.

John Gutierrez

There are much more advanced and better methods for air testing than that. We went in and did our own tests, including a test for acetone. When we tested, our tests came back negative for acetone. That was the following Tuesday after they went in Friday or Saturday.

Jim Duran

We have said all along that we encourage our licensees to innovate the Java platform. But it must be done in such a way that passes Sun's compatibility tests.

Alan Baratz

The relaxation procedure helped both groups cope with pain. Additionally, our tests showed both groups had higher physical pain thresholds after the relaxation session. But the obese participants still had a lower threshold for tolerating the pain.

Charles Emery

Any time somebody tests positive you are concerned on some level. It's only two out of 150 or 160 players, but that's two too many. We try and educate these players, but they are grown men.

Tony Bernazard

These are tests. Situations like this give you a benchmark with how society is doing with respect to racial harmony. If society hasn't passed this test, then we have the right to say we still have a problem with racism.

Ronald Walters

If we're going to have a test that's such a high-value test that impacts so many things about the school and the student, we better make sure those tests are valid and culturally appropriate.

Paul Backman

It's probably extremely significant, if not profound. I know there's been a lot of speculation about the state of technology, and how far they may have advanced toward having a usable chemical weapon. The fact that they were able to repeat tests or demonstrations on this tape indicates that they clearly have a way to produce a predictably lethal chemical.

John Gilbert

The good news is as we continue to do tests in the postal facilities and at Mrs. Lundgren's home, we're finding that there's no trace of anthrax.

John Rowland

Karen Raskopf

Most farmers still can't believe the news and are hoping the lab tests confirming bird flu are wrong.

American youth tend to have tattoos now. The demographic is changing. If a kid is in good shape and passes all the tests, do Americans really want us to say no to him because he's got tattoos? I don't think so.

Bryan Hilferty

Please remember we're talking about a test that we agree to do that we do on our own. It's not a required test. That's a very, very severe test. It's a high-speed test, it's designed to take tires right up to their limits, ... If we don't have tires that fail tests, then what value are they?

John Lampe

We'd like to know what tests were conducted.

Aphaluck Bhatiasevi

Samaya Mamedova

Schools and districts wouldn't face any sanctions because of the lateness of the tests.

I umpired three of the Tests in 1981 when Ian Botham was doing his stuff and this was better than all that.

Dickie Bird

One of the truest tests of integrity is its blunt refusal to be compromised.

Chinua Achebe

From a psychological point of view it has been a massive boost for South Africa ahead of the Tests.

Kepler Wessels

One difference between this plan and the others is that our standards and the state tests are much better aligned. We are in a much better position to teach kids what will be measured on the tests.

Janet Walsh

I figure we'd might as well have tests for us to get to state so when we get to state it might be a little easier on us when we face the better teams. I think it's kind of a good thing.

Deanthony Zanders

The goal of SPIAS' Quality Evaluation is to provide an independent, third party review of the portfolios John Hancock has selected. SPIAS' evaluation demonstrates that the portfolios in John Hancock's program have met the tests outlined.

Phil Edwards

I couldn't straighten my leg or bend it. It felt like I bumped knees at first, but the pain got more and more intense. Then I didn't try to get up. I don't really know what the diagnosis is, but I'm getting ready to go over and get some tests done.

Gerald Wallace

It's hard to watch them go through that test that before they even go through sets them as a failure and I resent it. I don't think they've (CSAP tests) done a single good thing for them.

Marlene Walz

It was a great day yesterday. He did some tests and the knee was better than the other knee. I was just happy for Leon to see how happy he was. ... The sky's the limit now. He'll stay in the gym and get better.

Bernard Ward

Although the test itself is only in English, sometimes it helps students (who) read in Spanish become more comfortable to understand how the tests operate.

Lynn Heckmann

Space offers extraordinary potential for commerce and adventure, for new innovations and new tests of will. As Americans, we can't help but reach for the stars. It's our nature. It's our destiny.

Bill Frist

A 50-year-old woman is confirmed to have bird flu after all three lab tests showed positive results.

Paijit Warachit

We do not wish to respond to information apparently leaked by the police department. I will say only that our experts tell us that polygraph tests at this time would produce results that were meaningless because of their (the family's) emotional state.

Pat Korten

[Although admitting the timing --on the heels of the Hiroshima anniversary -- was bad, Beijing diplomats defended their position.] China has all along exercised utmost restraint on nuclear testing, ... The tests it has conducted are extremely limited in number.

Chen Jian

I knew that the testing lab was a great place to gain efficiency based on my previous startup experience. With manual testing you can't reproduce problems as readily and the breadth of test-case coverage isn't as high. With more automation, you can focus your QA [quality assurance] team on making a difference, versus manual re-cabling to run nightly tests.

Brad Siims

I consider the phase we're in now as the preprimary phase, where a candidate actually tests out whether or not they have any support or if they have any potential for winning their party's nomination. It's a very important first step ... and how we react in New Hampshire plays a big part in whether the candidate runs or doesn't run.

Jim Demers

The vaccines have undergone pre-clinical tests ... and I hope they will be completed in three to four months.

Mikhail Zurabov

Although the community as a whole is making great strides in trying to understand more about what powder flow is, we're still a very long way off from being able to take a descriptor of the particles and predict what is going to happen without the intermediate, bench-scale tests that are out there right now.

James Prescott

I spent four hours at the hospital, they ran all the blood tests, all the other ones, and didn't find anything. I still don't know what it was. I feel better, but not back to normal.

Pete Fountain

If you're above the state average (on the MEAP tests), you should feel comfortable about the AYP.

Gayle Green

I want further tests done, I want to be able to ask questions of the doctors and get answers because the answers I was getting from the DSS are not necessarily untrue, but they did not have the medical knowledge to give the correct answers.

Allison Avrett

The local tests show he was positive for bird flu .

Hariadi Wibisono

We've been able to get a lot of guys in. We know that we're going to see tougher tests down the road and we're just dedicating ourselves to keep working hard and try to stay physically ready.

Mike Alley

There's no way to draw the line. If you say you can't smoke and you use blood tests to police it, you could also test for genes that cause cancer.

Peter Handal

We'll know early this week. I'm not allowed to run any of my 29 horses at Laurel Park, but I was allowed to enter a horse on Friday for this coming Wednesday - pending the results from the tests.

Chris Grove

We've taken into account the fact that three Tests are virtually back-to-back and we believe we've got adequate cover in this squad to manage that tight schedule.

Trevor Hohns

I don't care to lose two games as long as we're getting better. We got two good tests this week, and we feel like we got better this week.

Joe Layne

We are shocked about the symptoms we have seen in the volunteers. Extensive pre-clinical tests showed no sign of any risk.

Thomas Hanke

I didn't get the call about the city results until 4:30 in the afternoon. So one of the problems we have is that these tests for indicator bacteria take 24 hours to develop. So really, unfortunately, we're saying we had a problem yesterday.

Lawrence Lau

The difference between the lowest and highest quintile of vitamin D levels [on the lung function tests] was 4 percent for both FEV1 and for FVC. This sounds small, but the changes seen in this study are large compared with most environmental factors that affect lung function.

Peter Black

Talk to your doctors about what cancer screening tests are best for you. It could save your life.

Heather Logan

An IDNS report of tests results four days later states clearly that no cobalt 60 or other fission products were in that water.

Neal Miller

If a student or partner tests positive we also provide prescriptions for everything but HIV and AIDS.

Wendy Mcgonigal

Everyone should call the president of the United States and tell him to stop giving all of these damn tests.

Nelson Wolff

In my view, the standardized tests we'd want to distribute on a national level simply do not exist.

Joe Glover

The doctors named the tests and procedures she should have done. The lawyers advised her about tax and estate planning. The artists recommended exhibits to see or specific masterpieces to view. The professors encouraged her to read specific books, while the financial professionals scribbled stock tips on napkins and told her how to restructure her portfolio.

Ronnie Sellers

Each of these tests is demanding but eminently deliverable. We are working as hard as we possibly can to secure a second resolution.

Jack Straw

You can't afford to get your tests done, ... I went in to an insurance company ... I had a wife and kid and everything ... they tripled my premium. They still say if you die of cancer, they aren't covering you. It's a humiliating experience.

Joe Piscopo

Regardless of the history of IQ tests in the family, if I see nurturing, warm, interactive people who read emotional signals well and interact well, usually I see happy, competent and bright children.

Stanley Greenspan

Until now, three children are being treated in a hospital ... two are suspected of having the symptoms of bird flu based on the lab tests. The other one is still under observation.

Siti Fadillah Supari

We have a number of tests in place to make sure it doesn't happen, and we will be adding new ones after this.

Joe Telafici

We give the Terra Nova test so ISTEP is not the first big test they take. Terra Nova tests similar skills so they get that practice in first and second grades. Some children get stressed by it, but if the parents and teachers have the right attitude, they don't get as stressed. We try not to create an environment that would cause that.

Linda Stephenson

You wouldn't know they were sick if you hadn't taken the tests. They're eating, not coughing. There doesn't appear to be any sign other than temperature.

Sally Goswell

I absolutely think it makes a difference. By getting 12- to 17-year-olds to take these tests, at least when they are 22, 26, 27, whatever, they've been exposed to water safety.

Phil Petersen

If future blood tests indicate the cells are indeed churning out the enzyme, this entire endeavor will have moved from theory into the pages of medical firsts.

Anthony Payne

The secret of a leader lies in the tests he has faced over the whole course of his life and the habit of action he develops in meeting those tests.

Gail Sheehy

We've always stood up well in comparison with our competitors in technical tests but users disliked that they had to pay $39 and that we had ads. We decided to eliminate these obstacles in order to attract users.

Jon Von Tetzchner

The sale is contingent on several factors, including satisfactory soil tests and local and state economic development incentives being granted. We will extend utilities, extend access to the frontage road and relocate existing rail lines from the site. We will also have the right to repurchase any of the property should Capstone not follow through on any of its building commitments.

Marc Elliott

He [Vaughan] is ruled out of this Test, but is not out of the series at this stage. Vaughan is to return home for treatment. It is too early to say whether he will be fit for the remaining two Tests and the one-day series.

Andrew Walpole

We have imposed the strictest voting system tests in the country. We think this should be part of it too.

Bruce Mcpherson

Not all of those are different people. Some are patients who come several times a month for tests or treatments.

Connie Schroeder

We've done different tests on these birds but we haven't found anything. We don't know the reason. We have quarantined the area.

Behrouz Yasemi

We still have three-to-one disparity in per-pupil spending between the richest and the poorest districts, but all kids are expected to pass the same tests and meet the same standards by the third grade. This is nuts.

Tom Mooney

We may never know if that child had whooping cough or not, but it was treated because of the whooping cough-like symptoms. All tests of people who have had close contact with the child come up negative.

Linda Jones

In general there is an increasing use of psychometric tests, and some are designed to test things like employee honesty.

Allan Schweyer

We recommend that those who visited the casino between Oct. 1 and Nov. 27 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and were there 120 hours or more, contact their physician and request an evaluation that includes a TB skin test. The physician may also recommend additional tests if necessary.

Dr. Wilma Wooten

He was sitting up in bed. They were doing tests. They weren't allowing him to walk around.

James Grant

Generally speaking, and not in all instances, those schools that have higher percentages of students receiving special education services are going to tend to do less well on the tests. It's the nature of an education disability that it makes it more difficult for you to learn in some respect or another.

David Ernst

Through my skating, I've learned so much about myself. My sport taught me what I could do with my talents, whether in the rink or in the rest of my life. I think exercise tests us in so many ways, our skills, our hearts, our ability to bounce back after setbacks. This is the inner beauty of sports and competition, and it can serve us all well as adult athletes.

Peggy Fleming

It came out of nowhere. They needed to run these tests. I think he'll be cleared by Friday or Saturday.

Danny Nee

It's the hardest endurance event you can do. It really tests your entire mind, your body, every faculty you have.

Kosasih Wirahadikusumah

It was one of the best batting tracks despite the fact that I have just played five tests in my career.

Mahendra Dhoni

We feel that results of our tests represent an important first step understanding the complex relationships between aging, brain structure and cognitive performance. The brain can be very plastic in how it re-directs pathways and functions in response to circumstances.

David Madden

Standardized tests don't measure everything in a child's life in school. We should take a look at the total education and not just what they can put on a bubble sheet.

Andy Ford

I have yet to see any tests predict the success or failure of any teacher in the classroom, ... Passing the bar exam doesn't mean that you are going to be a great lawyer. Obviously, passing the bar exam doesn't mean you are going to be a good politician either.

Charlie Williams

Generally, 85 percent of the tests come back as the sporadic, or naturally occurring form, 14 percent come back as the familial form that is passed down through generations and less than 1 percent come back as the variant form. There's never been a variant case acquired in the United States.

Tom Shanahan

Do not rely completely on any other human being, however dear. We meet all life's greatest tests alone.

Agnes Macphail

We tested this in markets across the country. Based on our experience in these tests, we believe we will be able to make that up in rental transactions and lower marketing, operating, and promotional costs.

Randy Hargrove

All the tests have come back fine, but they also said that there's no guarantee that everything is ok.

Amy Ray

The availability of free tickets for some of the enclosures brought in the crowds for the tests against England which is good for the game in Pakistan. We are going to do the same against India.

Abbas Zaidi

I would suggest the people from other counties here, they do have emissions tests. Not waste their time coming over here.

Arthur Sullivan

Hundreds of people are lining up to take tests for infections, heart and kidney problems and dehydration.

Julie Ferguson

There's an appreciation, not unlike that for dancers or tightrope walkers, of the body undergoing tests and coming through them by courage and technique; a desire for "clean" results.

Richard Gilman

They did a chest CAT scan for him and a back MRI and some blood tests and it didn't show any cancer. He refused a biopsy in order to determine if he really has cancer or not [of the prostate].

Bakhtiar Amin

We go to the hospital twice a week. She has had bone marrow biopsies, four blood transfusions and numerous tests.

Lori Afridi

These weapons were sent to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime lab for testing, and the results of those tests show a positive match between the weapons recovered in Alabama, the shell casings found at the scene and the projectiles removed from the body of Deputy Kinchen.

Paul Howard
